Jasper County Released Inmates Public Records

Jasper County Released Inmates on the SCDC List

The South Carolina Department of Corrections maintains a free, searchable released inmate list at public.doc.state.sc.us/released-inmate-list. You can filter by county to pull up Jasper County released inmates specifically. Choose a date range and the search returns names, SCDC identification numbers, release dates, and release types. Updates happen throughout the week.

This tool covers only those who served time in a South Carolina state prison facility. State sentences are generally imposed for convictions carrying more than one year of incarceration. If the person served a shorter sentence at the Jasper County detention facility, the SCDC list will not show that release. Contact the county directly for local-level records.

The SCDC main site at doc.sc.gov also has a current inmate search. If the person you are looking for does not appear in active custody, cross-referencing the released inmate list confirms when and how they were discharged from state custody.

Note: The SCDC released inmate list only reflects state prison releases and does not capture individuals held on local charges at the Jasper County jail.

SLED CATCH Criminal History for Jasper County

SLED's CATCH portal at catch.sled.sc.gov provides a paid criminal history search for South Carolina records. The fee is $25 per search with a $1 transaction charge. You enter a name and date of birth. Results include statewide arrest and conviction data from the past three years. For Jasper County released inmates, CATCH can surface charges processed through Jasper County courts when those records were submitted to the SLED database.

CATCH is one of the most thorough public tools available. It covers both local charges and state convictions. The results come back quickly after payment and include case-level detail not always visible in the SCDC released inmate list alone. If someone served county time and their charges were reported to SLED, those records will appear here.

Note: SLED CATCH results depend on local agencies submitting records to the state database in a timely manner, so very recent arrests may not yet appear.

Their search tool is at dppps.sc.gov. You can look up a person by name, SID number, or birth year. Results show current supervision status and whether someone is actively reporting to an agent.

Parole applies to those released early from state prison. Probation applies to those given suspended sentences. Both involve regular agent contact and strict compliance requirements. Jasper County cases would be supervised by an SCDPPPS agent assigned to the Lowcountry region based on the person's post-release address.

Supervision status matters for families trying to reconnect and for community members with safety concerns. Knowing whether a Jasper County released inmate is under active supervision helps clarify their legal standing in the community.

FOIA Access to Jasper County Jail Records

Include the person's name, booking dates, and your contact details in the request. Agencies are generally required to respond within ten business days. Copying fees must be reasonable under state law. Most routine inquiries can be handled faster by calling the detention center directly at (843) 726-7900 before submitting a formal FOIA request.
